Following this announcement on Twitter, Griffin placed all of the blame for the violence on the officers and the right-wing protesters present:

Oh, fuck off! Police in Portland,of all cities, siding with & protecting nazis “proud boys” and “prayer…” some shit. White America has to face the harsh reality that cops are largely racist. Yeah, I said it. The cops are fighting the actual Portlanders and calling them “antifa” https://t.co/Z08UuXefaR

The problem with Griffin’s accusing the police of lying about Antifa presence is that the Antifa themselves claimed to be there:

The cops call them Antifa, because that is how they identify themselves; and they are engaged in violent attacks against Portland citizens, and the @PortlandPolice. And, just incase you missed it, most of your Antifa pals are white! https://t.co/6v6yVjWsw9

False. As a former Portlander, and working journalist there who pretty recently covered my share of these protests, I can tell you the majority of all protesters from both sides aren’t actual “Portlanders” & police there have never “protected” one group at the expense of another. https://t.co/U5Mo6wihqp

Others pointed at the hypocrisy of Griffin‘s condemning the police for protecting the right-wing protesters after she claimed to need protection following her graphic photoshoot with a fake, beheaded President Trump:

This clash of protesters is part of a month-long series of protests against ICE in Portland. Many believe the protests escalated due to Mayor Ted Wheeler’s refusal to send in police to work with ICE in managing the protesters.
